It's definitely being prepped to be their low-budget model, but with K200D prices sitting right around the MRSP of the K-m, I don't have any idea how they plan to sell any of the new bodies. Here's hoping it sells like mad anyways and gives Pentax enough cash to throw the 645D back into the R&D department  .

Yep, I just find the whole thing to be very confusing. Pentax should have done more to separate the two models.
